Ridgway's Hawk_2473.jpg

Dominican Republic endemic and critically endangered species and perhaps the rarest raptor in the world.

Estimated fewer than 300 birds still exist in a single area.

The Peregrine Fund has established a captive breeding program and is trying to introduce the birds on another part of the island with only limited success so far in past 3 years.
